F# support for msbuild based projects and preview3

Just a note for discussion/info or if someone like the sdk and f# and want to contribute.

F# support it’s in progress at https://github.com/dotnet/netcorecli-fsc/issues/19 Examples: https://github.com/dotnet/netcorecli-fsc/tree/master/examples/preview3

Current status:

• restore3/build3/run3/pack3 are supported for netstandard/netcoreapp/net451 and multi framework (crossgen), types: console and lib.
• the msbuild targets/props are auto-imported on restore from nuget packge FSharp.NET.Sdk
• the CoreCompile target now temporary invoke the dotnet-compile-fsc (as tool, like preview2) instead of the Fsc msbuild task (bonus point: because use same dotnet-compile-fsc flow, the VS Code intellisense works with Ionide already). Next iteration the msbuild tasks assembly is going inside the package.

@enricosada thanks for the heads up. Since there is no work here and the conversation wound down, I’m going to close the issue. We can reopen if you think we need to do something here.

@enricosada this is great! @KevinRansom FYI

How soon will you be ready with a project template that can be added to dotnet-new?

@blackdwarf @livarcocc @jgoshi FYI as well
